Altenew Build-A-Flower: Poppy Release Blog Hop...

This gorgeous new stamp set has 2 blooms that are so easy to create. Each bloom has 3 steps to the bloom and then a couple small details for each complete flower. Super easy!!

My first card showcases a way to use the outline of the bloom to create a fun, clean and simple background....

Randomly stamping the flower in black ink definitely created bold background. To finish this card off, I die cut the hello die in black fun foam and then layered it with an ink blended hello die cut. I added a little frosty edge to the bottom for a little shine.

I love how the black fun foam gives dimension but also ties the black details of the card together.

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $30 gift certificate to 5 lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog for a chance to win. Five winners will be announced on the Card Blog on 12/9/2018.

I love, love, love both your cards! Just beautiful. It reminded me I wanted to get some of that really thin silver wire or thread but I couldn’t find it in your list of where to get everything. I remember SSS had it but they were out of stock when I try to get it earlier this month.

I love the outlines with the bright red sentiment on top. Such a fun idea that one can replicate with so many flower sets. And, of course, the poppies in red are a total classic. Thanks for sharing with us!

Hi Laurie. Wow, both those cards are gorgeous - LOVE them both. The first one with the black and white background and the watermelon coloured Hello is super elegant and the second card with those gorgeous poppies is so beautiful. Altenew just HAD to bring out this stamp set right before Christmas when we're all broke! Never mind. Will save up and get this set some time, because poppies are just about my favourite flower. Thanks for sharing your beautiful cards with us. Oh, by the way, Merry Christmas! Can't believe I'm saying that already. LOL
